FAMÍLIA & CRIANÇAS by James Rawes

BRING THE WHOLE GANG. THIS IS GOING TO BE FUN.

WE BET FUN IS IN YOUR FAMILY DNA. 2–11 YEAR OLDS

12–14 YEAR OLDS

15–17 YEAR OLDS

Mom and Dad, Grandparents: Relax. Because we’ve taken the worry out of finding a vacation that’s fun for everyone in your family. So point your collective flip-flops toward the gangway and come aboard. Imagine the “ahhh” feeling that comes from knowing there’s something that will make each one of you happy. Like our three youth programs, sure to keep kids and teens so busy seeing and doing they won’t even notice our Youth Staff are keeping an eye on them. Then there’s our family-friendly accommodations. If you’ve got a big tribe or you’re just traveling with other families, you can book connecting staterooms and give yourself plenty of room to spread out. Kids and teens: Now this is easy. Prepare yourself to have ridiculous – almost inhuman – amounts of fun. Put away the schoolbooks and required reading. And start packing the swimsuits, camera and snorkels.

THE ONE PLACE WHERE KIDS NEVER HAVE TO HEAR ‘‘ACT YOUR AGE.’’ Three cheers for Camp Carnival . It’s ®

the year-round place just for kids ages 2 to 11 to let loose, be silly and make new friends. Younger kids, 2 to 5, can have their faces painted, do arts and crafts, or gather round for storytime. Older kids, 6 to 8, will be busying themselves studying stars and planets, making volcanoes and impersonating knights. Meanwhile, the “mature” ones – kids 9 to 11 – can challenge each other to a scavenger hunt, video game or trivia competition.

And just so you don’t feel left out, you’re invited to family activities like the Family Welcome Aboard party, kids’ talent shows and scavenger hunts. Parents can also leave their children in Camp Carnival to go have dinner on their own in the steakhouse*† while their children are taken care of and fed on the Lido deck. Plus, our programs are run by our Camp Carnival Staff, who have degrees in childhood education or professional childcare experience. On second thought, maybe you want to keep that to yourselves, Mom and Dad.

BEDTIME, SHMEDTIME. It’s like they say – the fun comes out at night. That’s why we created Camp Carnival Night Owls, the ®

fun-filled spot from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. where kids can let loose, rock out and, uh, well, act like kids. And trust us, there will be plenty for them to do. Like play with toys or video games, watch movies or compete in board games. We also have three different parties your kids can partake in, all geared toward their age group to make sure they’re having the time of their lives. Each party comes chock-full of incredible giveaways and yummy snacks. We also stock up on the comfiest pillows and blankets around for whenever the kids need a little rest. And with all the fun they’ll be having, trust us, they’ll have no trouble sleeping.

LET THE PARTYING BEGIN!

OWL JAMS Owl Jams is from 10 p.m. to 12 a.m. and is for kids ages 2 to 11. Its the perfect place for them to get their arts and crafts on, beat their high score on a video game, or just dance to some good ol’-fashioned tunes.

FUN ‘TIL ONE Fun ‘Til One is from 10 a.m. to 1 a.m. and is the best party on the high seas. Loaded with theme nights, dancing, singing and video games for kids ages 6 to 8.

FUN AT SEA… ‘TIL 3:00 Fun at Sea...‘Til 3:00 is from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m and is the go-to spot for competitions, sporting events, video games, plus pizza and more! Perfect for kids ages 9 to 11.

So come one, come all — we’re ready to give your kid a night so awesome, they won’t want to leave. Until they see you, of course. (Applicable fees apply.)

A SPACE JUST FOR YOUNG TEENS. AND THEY DON’T EVEN HAVE TO PICK UP AFTER THEMSELVES. For young teens ages 12 to 14

You know teens – they have deﬁnite ideas about what they like and what they, well, don’t. Fortunately, our Circle “C” program easily falls into the “like” category. ®

It’s an area just for 12- to 14-year-olds – without pesty little kids or bossy older teens in their space. Late-night movies, nighttime swims, dance parties, karaoke and video games. Yup, we have it all for young teens. Plus the chance to go onshore with our Circle “C” Director for once-in-a-lifetime adventures,* including swimming with dolphins, petting stingrays and tubing down a river. And best of all, our Circle “C” Director is always on hand to keep an eye on all the fun.

IF WE CAN PREVENT JUST ONE EYE ROLL OR SHOULDER SHRUG, WE’VE DONE OUR JOB. For teens ages 15 to 17

No parents or little kids allowed. Those are the rules of Club O2 . And that’s just ﬁne with 15- to 17-year-olds. ®

Because, this is their special place to get away from everything and everyone, except other teens their own age. Here, our Club O2 Director balances being both a friend and the “responsible” one. So what’s on every teen’s “cool-to-do” list? That would be dancing, watching movies, playing sports and video games, and listening to music. You know, your basic social networking applications. Add in shore excursions* to go horseback riding, sailing and hiking waterfalls, and you might not be able to pry your teen away.

* Not included in cruise fare.

LAST TIME WE CHECKED, FUN DOESN’T HAVE AN OFFICIAL AGE LIMIT. The kids are off having fun at Camp Carnival , Circle “C”

or Club O2 , so what do you do? The same, of course. ®

And lucky for you, the options are plentiful. Stroll into Spa Carnival and get a hot-stone treatment or listen to ®

music and lounge outdoors in our adult only area, Serenity *. Or, maybe leave the kids with Camp Carnival’s SM

babysitting service,† make a reservation and have a dinner date at the steakhouse,†* before courting Lady Luck at the casino.

MAY WE RECOMMEND A LITTLE FACE TIME WITH THE FAMILY UNIT? If you were at home, the kids would be getting ready for school, and you, for work. But you’re not at home. You’re living in a “Fun Ships ” time zone now, and ®

anything’s possible. All aboard for fun Grab the gang and splish-splash the day away at Carnival’s Twister Waterslide , or cozy up for an outdoor TM

movie night at Carnival’s Seaside Theatre *. Practice your SM

putt at mini golf or play a game of hoops*. Maybe go for something more reﬁned in our Spa Carnival. (By the way, we even have a spa menu created just for teens.) And when you’ve worked up an appetite, don’t hold back. Because we have everything from casual to formal dining, not to mention pizza, ice cream and frozen yogurt, around the clock. There are classics like hamburgers, several healthy options and a buffet full of good stuff. Wrangle up excitement onshore Carnival takes you to some of the most memorable places in the world – the Caribbean, The Bahamas, Bermuda, Mexico, Hawaii, Alaska, Canada & New England, and Europe. Which just means that every port you sail into is an opportunity to have some family fun. Read up on our shore excursions here: www.carnival.com/shoreexcursions. And don’t forget, we’re fun enablers. So if you want a couple of extra days with your family to explore New Orleans, Miami or Orlando, we say, “Go for it!” Our value-priced pre- and post-cruise vacations extend the excitement.

GOOD-TO-KNOW INFO. Can kids stay in a stateroom alone? Kids under 21 years of age must be accompanied in the same stateroom by a parent, grandparent or guardian who is at least 25 years old. What documents do I need to take for my kids? If you are traveling with a minor and without both of his/her parents or legal guardians, we recommend bringing an original signed letter from the absent parent/legal guardian authorizing the minor to travel with you. This will expedite processing by the Department of Homeland Security. Please refer to www.carnival.com for the most up-to-date documentation your child will need in order to travel. How old does my baby have to be to travel on a Carnival cruise? Infants must be at least six months old (12 months for Hawaii or Transatlantic) to travel. I’m pregnant. Can I still go on a Carnival cruise? Guests who are 24 completed weeks or more into their pregnancy on the date of disembarkation will not be allowed to sail. Women pregnant less than 24 completed weeks must submit, prior to departure, Carnival’s Pregnancy Certiﬁcation Form, which must be completed and signed by the guest’s physician. Because the safety of the pregnant mother and unborn child is our number one concern, Carnival will not accept any agreement or recommendation from the guest and/or her physician that the policy be waived. Carnival’s pregnancy policy and Certiﬁcation Form are available at Carnival’s web site under the Frequently Asked Questions. Policies and procedures change regularly. This information was valid at the time of publishing. Please visit www.carnival.com for the latest information.

What should I pack? Casual and resort wear are fine for the daytime. And most nights, casual wear is fine for dinner too. But there will be one or two nights when you’ll want to dress more formally. Do you offer babysitting services? Besides the complimentary Camp Carnival® activities that are available every day, we also have a little thing we like to call Night Owls. It’s the late-night way for kids ages 11 and younger to have a blast! It runs from 10:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m. and includes video games, movies, board games, snacks and drinks. It’s $6.75 per hour per child (pricing subject to change) plus 15% gratuity. And we make it easy by charging it to your Sail & Sign® card. All Night Owls activities take place in Camp Carnival. There are NO instateroom services available. Daytime services are available for infants 2 and under on port days for the same price. Contact the Camp Carnival Youth Staff on board for specific times of these services as they vary by port. Can infants under 2 years old participate in Camp Carnival? Sorry, infants under 24 months (2 years) may not participate in any scheduled activities taking place in Camp Carnival. THERE ARE NO AGE EXCEPTIONS TO THIS POLICY. In port, daytime babysitting is available for infants 2 and under. The same price structure applies. Times will vary. Can my child come into the casino? Casino guests must be at least 18 years old. Can my child have a spa treatment? Sure, as long as they’re at least 16 years old and accompanied by an adult. We’ve even designed a spa menu just for them called Generation YSPA , SM

packed with relaxing treatments like Surfer’s Scrub, Fabulous Fruity Facial and more.
